Stuff that gets shafted at Olympics

There are a lot of crazy "sports" at the Olympics that I never thought would be an Olympic event (walking, air pistol, synchronized diving) --- yet there are many Activities that are more exciting and yet get the shaft (baseball,etc.).

 

If you could create a new event, what activity would it be?

What i used to play with my friends down in san diego. we would down 2 40oz as quickly as possible then swim from one side of the embarcadaro to the other. The park is set up so there are 2 man made jetties surrounding a small harbor with about 150 yards of water in between. we always made it to the other side. call it Drunken Freestyle Swiming

Combine the shooting with the athletics: "I'll give you 10 seconds for you to get here to there before I start f*cking shooting."

The high dive isn't a sport.. it's a failed suicide attempt. If you're diving 70 feet into water and living, you're doing it wrong ph34r.gif

I would suggest Shingle Wars.

 

See, I'm from Florida, and we usually have a sh*tload of roof shingles lying everywhere after a hurricane. So, me and my friends would throw these shingles at each other like frisbees. They hurt like sh*t and they're surprisingly accurate. It would also help if you're high, because it's much funnier than it is dangerous and stupid that way. Shifty41s_beerhatsmilie2.gif

The best game would be the Russian classic "race the brick". One person runs and another throws a brick, if you escape you win. tounge.gif

 

And baseball sucks BTW, one of the most boring sports I've ever seen.

Yeah, that phrase is a contradiction of itself.

 

They should include caber tossing, ach aye wee lasseh! Or land mine frisbee - you drop it, and kablamo!

Agreed but considering f*cking softball is an Olympic sport, I think baseball should be too.

 

 

I'm thinking maybe Olympic Carnie sideshows. For example, the one where you hit a hammer at the bottom of a tower which makes some thing go flying up. The harder you hit the higher it goes, unless that is already a sport, wouldn't be surprised. Maybe paintball.

What about Drunk Driving? or Stalking, there need to be more socially deranged events.

 

(Race the Brick would be my second favorite!)

I got a bunch:

 

- Belly flop diving, who can make the biggest splash?

- Midget toss

- Oil wrestling (for the ladies)

- Beer Pong

- Eating Contests

 

I could go on and on

I like baseball. I don't get what the rest of the world sees in soccer. I hate it. It's f*cking mind-numbing.

Baseball is either hit or miss. Some people get it and some don't. Same with all sports.

 

back to the topic. Skateboarding. It's popular pretty much everywhere.

Athletes in a reasonably priced car! Representing Britian would be James May, aka Captain Slow.

"shingle wars" and "race the brick" both look like promising sports. Both would have my vote.

Holy sh*t, I just learned that baseball is an Olympic sport. This turns my world upside down, I've gone years not realizing this, apparently only eight teams compete. But this realization is wasted by the fact that it, along with softball, is being discontinued.

 

 

Also Olympic Ro-Sham-Bo-ing, the art of kicking eachother in the nuts until someone falls down, has got my vote. Either that or air guitar.

Exactly, I was like how did you guys not know that there's always been baseball? Its all over MLB.com releasing of pitchers, players, etc.

 

Anyways, GO USA

On a serious note, surfing is a real possibility for the 2012 London olympics. There's a huge campaign behind it.

Isnt baseball already in the olympics? I used Wiki so it may be wrong:

 

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baseball_at_t...Summer_Olympics

 

I mean if baseball can getin then anything can, cos IMO i dont see the excitment in hitting and catching and throwing a ball for 3 hours or however long it takes. Still sh*t.

 

OT: I honestly wouldnt mind seeing skateboarding in the olympis as itll be alot more exciting than pistol shooting and hockey etc. They have BMX in this time so by 2012 who knows for skateboarding.

What the f*ck, its a legitimate team sport, been there for like 100 years. I could pick a lot of Olympic sports less exciting then shooting and hockey, walking anybody?

 

 

New Sport: Binge drinking.

 

EDIT: Dodgeball

 

And drunk racquetball.

Fireball. If you've seen Friends you know what I mean. Either with a tennis ball or a bowling ball.
